The driver in the above pic was an awful driver (plus his left break light was not working). That guy was pacing cars so people couldn't pass, and he was on a cell phone! When he finally got out of the left hand lane he didn't even use his turn signal.

I was just going through some pictures on my desktop and I found this from 01-02-2007. Matt & I were supposed to have tacos that night. In fact, it was still Christmas Break! :

I hate expired food - there's nothing worse than going to the store to buy something, only to get home later to notice the expiration date has passed. The date on this particular meat had not yet expired, but something didn't look appealing about the texture and such. I'm not sure if it's visible in the pic, but I remember part of the meat had a nice red color, while other parts were the typical brownish color you would normally see when meat was about to expire, or was already expired...

Last night I went to a party store that I've never been to before. I picked up some things, and then on an impulse buy I decided to get Matt & I some Mocha Frappuccinos... I also picked up a box of Dots because I have a soft spot for them and felt like I deserved another treat.

A little while later I decided to open up my box of Dots. Immediately I knew something was wrong because they were not soft. In fact, they were so hard that I didn't dare eat them in fear of breaking my teeth... I slammed one of the Dots on the counter and it sounded like a penny. I jokingly told Matt that I wouldn't be surprised if the Frappuccinos were also expired.

I called the fishtank cleaning guy and scheduled a visit for Tuesday... he's also going to take the catfish out of the tank. :-(

I'll hate to see the big guy go, but it's probably for the best... hopefully the pet store will put him in a nice big tank (75+ gallons) so the fish will have some room to move around until he's sold or dies. Since I have such little time left to take pictures and such, I think I'm going to position the camera/tripod in front of the tank so I can get some video of it feeding/swimming.

I've been doing a little bit of internet surfing this morning for information on what I would like to plant/replace in my garden this season.

Mums from 2005 - I wonder how many flowers will bloom this fall..

My searches brought me to a few sites where I found some plants I like:

A plant I would like see in the backyard is a butterfly bush. It's supposed to attract butterflies and hummingbirds which may provide some entertainment for kitty.

I think I have one of these (Euonymous fortunei - Gaiety Euonymous) in my backyard - I like the colors of the leaves. Now that I know what the plant is called I may consider getting one for the front to replace a bush.
